I Bet You by Ilsa Madden-Mills: Blog Tour + Review

Wall Street Journalbestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills returns with an all-new swoon-fest of a novel about what happens when you look beyond labels and take a chance on love.

Sexy Athlete: I bet you…

Penelope Graham: Burn in hell, quarterback.

The late night text is random but Penelope knows exactly who “Sexy Athlete” is. And why she shouldn't take his wager.

Ryker Voss.

Football star.

Walks on water and God's gift to women.

Just ask him.

His bet? He promises Penelope he’ll win her the heart of the nerdy guy she’s been crushing on. His plan—good old-fashioned jealousy. Once her crush sees her kissing Ryker, he'll realize what he's missing. Sounds legit, right? The only question is…why is Ryker being so nice to her?

Penelope Graham.

Virgin.

Lover of sparkly vampires and calculus.

His mortal enemy.

Penelope knows she shouldn’t trust a jock, but what’s a girl to do when she needs a date to Homecoming? And Ryker’s keeping a secret, another bet, one that could destroy Penelope’s heart forever.

Will the quarterback score the good girl or will his secret mean everyone loses at this game of love?

Find out in this all-new standalone novel…

I have to say that New Adult is one of my favorite genre’s and Ms Ilsa is by far my favorite NA authors. Her books always suck me in from the get-go. I Bet You didn’t fall short of my expectations, it actually blew me away.

Ryker is just what you picture in a star quarterback; gorgeous, popular and of course…a PLAYER! That is until he meets Penelope. She is down to earth and loves vampires (EEEK) and math. She is not a fan of jocks and swears to never get involved with one…but Ryker is hard to resist. What starts out as a bet turns into complicated feelings. Who wins in the end?

This story was sexy and fun. I loved the pace and the chemistry between the characters. I loved how it’s a standalone and it was a quick read. This book was full of angst which is what I love about NA books the most.
